Track 11: Technology and Nursing Science

Technology and Nursing Science are two closely intertwined fields that, when combined, significantly enhance the quality of patient care, improve healthcare delivery, and help in the advancement of nursing practice. Let me break down what each of these concepts entails and how they interact:

Technology in Nursing

Technology in nursing refers to the use of various tools, devices, and systems that assist nurses in providing better care for patients, improving healthcare outcomes, and streamlining workflows. Technological advancements are helping nurses improve the quality of care, increase efficiency, reduce errors, and better manage patient information.

Examples of Technology in Nursing:

• Electronic Health Records (EHRs): Digital systems that store patient information, making it easier to track health histories, medications, lab results, and treatment plans. Nurses can access patient data quickly, ensuring more accurate and coordinated care.
